title = "Fetal growth velocity, size in early life and adolescence, and prediction of bone mass: association to the GH-IGF axis",
abstract = "Poor growth in early life is associated with numerous adverse outcomes later in life. In 123 adolescents 16-18 yr of age, the previous findings of a positive relation between size in early life and later bone mass was confirmed. These associations were mediated by the current height and weight, but it was not confirmed that alterations of the GH-IGF axis cause this.",
